DESCRIPTION
We?re going to talk about Occupational Skin Disease, which we will call OSD. OSD is any abnormality of
the skin that is either caused by, or aggravated by, the work we do.
It is one of the most common health problems in the workplace. OSD accounts for nearly 10% of all
days lost from work-related causes. (The highest, at 30%, is from muscle and bone problems.).
OSD can be difficult to diagnose because there are so many causes of skin abnormalities. Infectious
conditions, such as measles, can be passed from one person to another. OSD is not infectious so it
can?t be caught or passed on.
